Frequently asked questions
What is Tokenando?
Tokenando tracks the live economics of AI: token prices across hundreds of AI models from dozens of providers, three market indices settled daily, head-to-head model comparisons, and the reporting that explains why prices move.
Where does Tokenando get its pricing data?
Prices are aggregated continuously from live marketplace endpoints, including OpenRouter, and hand-curated from official provider pricing documentation. We never estimate, interpolate, or infer a price: a model with no published price is listed without one. Large price movements are held in a review queue rather than published automatically.
Which AI providers and models are tracked?
OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral, DeepSeek, xAI, Cohere, Moonshot, Amazon Bedrock, Azure, Together, Fireworks, Groq, OpenRouter and dozens more. New providers and models are added as they launch, and retired models stay readable for 90 days before they are removed.
How often are AI token prices updated?
The pricing index refreshes daily and the site rebuilds after it, so every page serves prices read within the last 24 hours. The news feed reads 25 active publisher sources and refreshes through the day.
What is a blended token price?
Blended cost is our own single-number summary, weighting the input rate at 70 per cent and the output rate at 30 per cent so models with different input and output prices can be ranked side by side. It is a calculation of ours, not a rate any provider quotes, and we label it that way wherever it appears.
Is Tokenando free?
Yes. The price index, the calculator, the comparison tools, the rankings, the benchmark leaderboards, the guides and the news feed are all open to anyone, with no account required.
Track the economics of AI before they move against you.
Explore live model pricing, compare provider economics, and follow the market forces shaping the cost of intelligence.
